Pharvet launches new innovative TruHoof Hoofcare product range
Pharvet has announced the latest brand addition to it's product portfolio. TruHoof is a unique and innovative range of Hoofcare products.
Launched at Pharvet's recent Hoof Health Symposium, held in collaboration with Teagasc and XLVets Ireland, the TruHoof range is formulated for the maintenance and improvement of hoof health and will include multiple product formulations and formats.
The flagship product of this range, TruHoof Gold, is a footbath solution specially formulated for dairy cows, containing a buffered solution of different acids which are skin safe to both animal and operator, while maintaining the acidity of a footbath at pH 2. Using a unique patented chelate, TruHoof Gold holds predictably higher concentrations of active copper in suspension.
Achieving adequate copper concentrations using conventional methods involves the use of large quantities, resulting in precipitation in solution, excessive waste and increased environmental contamination with heavy metals on disposal. TruHoof Gold effectively utilises the metals present, making it a safe product for the farmer, the animals and the environment.
Based on a 2% footbath solution mixture, 20 litres of TruHoof Gold will allow for up to 2500 cow passes.

TruHoof Prime is a specifically designed for footbathing beef cattle and sheep. Proven in field trials on Irish farms, TruHoof Prime has been shown to provide a consistently effective footbath throughout the processing of up to 800 ewes in a 100L footbath.
Paul Kennedy, National Sales Manager of Pharvet detailed the TruHoof range and why Pharvet brought these products to the Irish market.
“Cow welfare and longevity are hugely significant areas for our industry and they will become even more important in the coming years. Hoof health underpins both areas and as the leader in hoof health in the Irish market, an innovative hoof health range had been on the Pharvet teams' wishlist - we have created just that with TruHoof. The team have spent a great deal of time investigating the these products and conducting our own Irish field studies. We are confident the TruHoof range will be perfectly suited to Irish farms in both indoor and grazing systems alike.”
